mini update.

whas thinking off getting rid off it these last few months so it has just been sat in the garage. me thinking do i finish it or what. so wont be at pvs which is what i hoped for.

slowly started to get the love back for it.
got a eds enlarged tophat for it recently, a turbo tophat cover and a red l piece.
also put in the gsi rear bench in so i have rear head rests, also fitted a omp antheracite strut brace.

managed to get a standard parcel shelf.
and a very good condition steering wheel.

slowly but surely getting there...
